governor, the connecticut legislation that senator feinstein referred to briefly outlined the connecticut legislation. and what was the toughest part of the push to get the legislation passed? >> i think the toughest part was this desire to do it on a bipartisan basis, cwhich took a lot of effort on the part of the legislative leadership to hold everyone in the room. this was negotiated by republican and democratic leadership. i was out, you know, doing town hall meetings and beating the drum. i had released a five-point plan that was really common sense. it was getting it over the goal line, with bipartisan support. and, in fact, i think to some extent, one of the reasons that things seem to be happening in washington is that at least one state did it with republican votes. and it's hard to separate the republican votes from the democratic votes. now, what's in it? i mean, you need a certificate to buy ammunition. you have to be approved to buy an ammunition. we eliminate certain types of ammunition from being sold. we've raised the age with respect to buying guns. everyone has to go, un

crime violence with guns is down in states like connecticut. the red flag statute that we have results in preventing probably 100 to 150 people every year from having guns. it enables them to receive psychiatric care in more than half the cases. it saves lives and we can show the results in connecticut of the tough gun laws and that experience i think argues powerfully for more state laws. but here's the reason we need federal laws. the strongest state laws like connecticut's are at the mercy of the weakest because guns travel across state lines. our boundaries are porous to firearms so we are at the mercy with the states with the weakest laws and i think there will be continued movement at the state level and i think it will help build momentum for stronger federal laws but only five states now have this red flag statute. one is indiana. that's important because our vice president is from indiana and its experience there is persuasive evidence that will hopefully reach both sides of the aisle. >> i want to ask you about the legal troubles swir
